A recall does not mean your car is affected. Check the market, build date and VIN with the manufacturer.
- Engine / equipment
- Electromechanical brake servo control unit: Volkswagen Amarok (II)
- Period mentioned
- Built from 21/1/2025 to 12/6/2025 (only the VINs in the recall)
- Symptoms
- The official record describes no early warning signs. The risk is losing brake assistance: the pedal needs much more effort to stop the car.
- Possible cause described
- A fault in the electromechanical brake servo may cause a loss of brake assistance. It is UK recall R/2025/435 (Volkswagen 47CW, 609 vehicles built from 21/1/2025 to 12/6/2025); the remedy is a software update of the brake servo control unit.
- Check for the garage
- Ask a Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles dealer, with the VIN, whether your Amarok has recall 47CW outstanding: they update the brake servo software free of charge. If the brake pedal feels very hard, press harder, stop somewhere safe and do not drive on.
- Cost cited in the source
- No verified estimate; check whether the free recall remedy remains outstanding for the VIN.A rough figure from the original database, not an up-to-date quote.
